Good man, be great to meet you and see this beast on a cruise again. Will be interesting to compare performance between 2l and 2.6. All the best with getting it sorted.

From the little drives i have had :burnout:, i couldn't really tell any difference between them, in saying that it has been sometime since i last drove it with the 2L in it, however im not expecting much ha


Things that i need to fix before the southern cruise
  • Window wipers - Fuse is ok, wipers arent getting power (controlled by the ECU??)

    LHS indicators - Bulbs are fine, turn on and stay on. no flashing RHS works fine

    Alternator - Not charging, going to go over wiring again

Things that need to be Fitted/removed
  • EFI fuel pump to be replaced and rewired with the one out of the 260

    Choke

    Remove Existing ECU loom and unnecessary wires.


Any ideas on the problems? ideas welcomed

re: the indicator, check that indicator flashing relay under the dash/ clean up terminals/ change it. It played up heaps on my 140j first time round
